​Bradford Dragons Basketball Club have announced changes to their boardroom structure, with the installation of a new Chairperson and Financial Director.

The vacant Chair’s position came about when acting Chairman, Steven Valentine stepped down from the role. Announcing his resignation, Valentine commented, “My term of office has come to a close. I was only ever going to stay as acting Chairman until the end of the season. The team has had a good year, both on and off the court. We made the play-offs in the nationals and we’re in a good place for the start of the new season in September, having retained a core of excellent players. Last season’s two Americans (Ricky Fetske and Marcus Gooding) are both returning and we’re in the process of strengthening the squad. We are going to be the team that everyone else has to beat if they want to do well in the top flight of English Basketball. I will still be very much involved as Club Secretary and I am very much looking forward to the Dragons winning more games, whilst also having more time to support all our junior squads.”
